The Timely Witness.
At the close of a cold ■winter’s day
in the year 1814, during the Court term
at Clerkenwcll Assizes, England, there
came up by the evening mail stage an
ordinary looking person who halted in
a tavern at the town of B , where
trials wore being heard, and who in
formed the landlord that he shou.d pro
ceed on the following tiny, if the weath
er was not too bad.
Ho booked him -elf as ‘Henry Edge
ford, of Leeds,’ hi; baggage was duly
bestowed, and nothing out of the com
mon appearance indicated itself in bis
manner or habits. He spoke pleasant
ly, mixed with the coming and establish
ed, guests of the bor.se, and as the
weather seemed gloomy and forbidding
in the morning (a circumstance that
might easily have been foretold on the
evening he arrived, by the way . lie de
cided to remain over another day.
Among the cases which had he n pre
.sented by the grand jury of the borough
at tin. present sitting of the court, was
oae for highway robbery, charged upon
a man who answered to the name of
B irrowi, and whose trial had commenc
ed on the day of Edgeford arrival.
Time appeared to hang heavily upon
the new comer’s hand, and he seemed
to be anxious to proceed on bis journey
but the weather would not permit, and
ho found himself‘reluctantly compelled’
to tarry ac B . His landlord desi
rous to amuse him, and retain his vis
itor as long as possible, informed him
that the town or vicinity, offered but
poor encouragt ment ordinarily for the
amusement of st: angers, and especially
to those who were bred in and accus
tomed to city life ; but just at the time
Ihc court was in session, and among the
presentations was the case of die John
Burrows, who was being tried for an al
leged robbery on the highway, the de
tails of which would no doubt interest
him for the moment. But the stranger
had no taste for the marvellous and
.didn’t care to attend court.
The subject wa freely di-cussed at
table, however, both at breakfast and
lunch hours, and Edgeford was induced
at last to go to the court house, to listen
to the closing evidence upon the capital
trial which had so deeply interested
every one else in the neighborhood, and
which was really a cause of importance
and note.
In the meantime letters reached the
hotel for ‘Henry Edgeford Estp, of
Leeds,’ fot warded duly by the post from
London; and Mr. E. had spoken of one
or two of his correspondents casually,
w ho had been recognized by other gen
tlemen, also tarrying at the public
house where he was temporarily sojour
ing. lie had a heavy letter of credit
from iiis friend, as he called him, Hon.
Thos. Baring, and every thing about
the deportment and carriage of Mr.
Henry Edgeford denoted him the ac
complished gentleman.
The ca-e of Burrows, who was char
ged with the high crime mentioned was
O C
in this as sit forth m the allegation.
Cn the night of June Idth, is 14, the
Hon. Jonas M. P., was on Lis way
home in his post chaise, when his ani
mal was suddenly seized by a man who
sprat g from a hedgerow, near the
crossing of the Charing and Barring
ton roads, who presented a pistol
against the person of the honorbale M.
P. and demanded his money or las life,
ft was near the setting of the moon,
and the only clue to the identity of the
supposed robber was a small gash on
the back of hi; band, which the hon
orable gentleman observed at the time
the pistol was drawn upon him.
He had only four guineas about him
at that moment, and a single ten pound
note upon the l ank of England. The
latter was not discovered by the robber
but the four gold coins wore given up.
Immediately an alarm was given by
the honorable gentleman, scouts and po
licemen were sent out, and three day
after Burrows was captured in a neigh
boring town, and confined on su-picior,.
No gold was found on him.
The honorable gentleman felt very
positive about his identity, however,
from his dress, si. . a. d the scarred
hand ; and as the testimony of an M. P.
is a matter of no mean weight against a
poor devil who may chance to be out late
in the evening in the capacity happily,
of an amateur poacher, or otherwise,
so Burrows—who might or might not
bo innocent—was handed over for exam
ination, and subsequently was put upon
trial for his life, as the supposed robber
of the honorable Jonas Petit, member of
Parliament aforesaid, >vc. &c.
In defence, Burrows simply asserted
that be was a laborer without any spe
cial profes-ion. It was Ids lot to be any
where and everywhere L in time to
time. Ho had formerly been out at
service, and on the pro- ut occasion, (so
be declared) he was on his way in search
of a new place, having traveled from
Brighton on the day ho was falsely ar
rested, and never having been, to bi
knowledge in the vicinity of the cross
ing of the Charing and Barrington
roads in his life. This defence was of
no account, of course, when the solemn
asseveration of an honorable member
of the Parliament stood against it, and
moreover, when such honorable gentle
man was so certain of the scarred
hand &,e.
The evidence had been duly submit
ted, however, and upon the afternoon
of the second day of the trial, as we
have stated, Mr. Henry Edgeford was
prevailed upon to vi.-it the court house.
The honeraJde accuser had testified to
the best of his knowledge and belief
that Burrows was the man who robbed
him; all the connecting circumstance
had been set forth by the prosecuting
attorney, who exhibited the customary
zeal of a government officer where the
rich and influential are put in opposi
tion to the humble and powerless, and
the prisoner was Anally supposed to be
be in a most crith .1 position.
‘Upon my word said Mr. Edgeford,
sudden!; 5 urrir.g; Ve gentlemen who
] ad accompanied him from the hotel to
the trial, ‘upon my word, I have seen
that prisoner somewhere before this,’
and raping his eye-glass, for a closer
inspection of his person and features,
he declared that lie was sure he had
met the fellow within a few months —
of this he was positive.
The prisoner gazed upon the stranger
an instant, as if he partially recognised
him when the chief judge rose to
charge the jury.
He entertained no doubt, he said,
after listening to the pointed and con
cln. ive evidence which had been presen
ted to the court. Then turning to the
prisoner, he asked if ho had any de
fence to offer when Burrows arose
calmly, and in a clear voice r< plied;
‘My Lords—l am a poor stranger in
in this place, without a friend to turn
to for aid in my emergency; but lam
innocent of the high crime you have
charged against me. At the time this
alleged robbery was committed I was
far distant from the place where the
robbery was offered, and I never, wa
in that locality at all in my life. lam
t .tally ignorant of yonr rules of law,
and may not be permitted now, perhaps,
to present evidence tlut may effect my
unfortunate case favorably. Neverthe
less, I sec among the spectators present
one person who, providentially, may
save mo. Ido not know his name, hut
I bog that the gentleman who sits on
my right yonder (pointing to Henry
Edgeford) may he placed upon the
witness-stand and sworn.’
All eyes were now turned upon the
traveler, who at the request of the
court, entered the witness-box, when
the prisoner thus interrogated him;
‘Have you ever before seen me to
your know ledge ?’
‘I am quite sure I have ’
‘Will you give the court your name
and business ?’
‘My name is Henry Edgeford, of
Leeds, and I am a manufacturer of
cutlery.’
“Will you state when and where you
mot me, and under what circumstan
ces V
‘I was traveling about the middle of
June last from Dover to Aldohoro, and
upon arriving at the latter place I saw
you waiting at the lower stage house.
Being encumbered with luggage, I en
gaged you to carry ray box to the hotel,
afterwards to other lodgings, and I
clearly remember vour person and fea
tures.’
‘At what time was this?’
‘About the middle of June.’
‘Can }'on state the precise date of
your arrival there ?
‘No. I think it was on the loth or
10th of the month.’ Then turning to
the court, the witness added: ‘I am
not clear, yonr honors, as to the exact
day, hut if your honors will allow mo to
send to my hotel, where 1 am tempora
rily stopping here, I can obtain my
memorandum book, which will as.-ist
me, your honors permitting it.’
Leave was given at once, and in a
few minutes a trunk was brought
into court from the stranger's room at
the little hotel. Upon opening the box
the diary was found, and the witness
turned to the IGth of June, under which
date the following item occurred :
‘Mem—Paid porter for carrying lug
gage to lodging in Aldcrboro,’ half a
crown. Arrived at 2 1-2 p. m.’
The judge now asked again, ‘and do
you state that this prisoner was the
identical person who did this service for
you, Mr. Edgeford at that time?’
‘I am perfectly clear, your honors, in
this belief.’
Here was a singular statement, that
staggered the court, the jury and the
populace—and by no means least, the
honorable member of Parliament who
had been robbed on the highway! If
this statement was correct, Aldohoro’,
being near a hundred leagues di-tant
from Barrington road—surely Burrows
could not have been in both places the
same night, to wit, the IGth of June,
1,44.
‘I paid him a half crow:i piece, your
honors, which had a remarkably large
hole in it; and I remember a remark
that ho made at the time—that it had
been sadly Jewed alluding to its light
ness from this cause.’
Mr. Edgeford sat down, and the
prisoner then asked that the officer who
arrested him might be called for a mo
ment, who was subsequently required
to produce the contents of the prison
er’s pockets found on him when taken.
Among the small amount of silver thus
secured was a mutilated half crown
piece, which was shown to Mr. Edge
ford, who instantly declared it to bo
the one paid to the porter, to the best
of his belief!
This settled the verdict at once.
The crowd applauded, the judge sat
down in amazement, the cause went to
the jury, the result was an unqualified
acquittal on their part, without leaving
the box.
That same evening ‘Henry Edgeford
Esq.,’ ami John Burrows left the town
of B together. They were two
confederates in crime both being accom
plished ‘gentlemen of the road.’ Bur
rows was tiic robber of the honorable M.
P.; he was really guilty ; but his friend
and companion in evil, assumed the dis
guise of a gentlemen traveler, and Ic
ing aware of all the circumstances of the
case from the beginning, found no diffi
culty in coining a story adapted to the
moment and the imminent emergency of
his a'sociuto. His letters were forge
ries, his bills of credit the same; he
llarned what coins were found upon
Burrows when he was arrested, and
his determination to clear him was en
tirely successful. There was no time
or opportunity for rebutting the testi
money of Edgeford—his whole plan was
a perfect coup do grace, and to his con
federate it» crime he proved eminently
on thac occasion, a timely witness.
Jefferson Davis and Daniel Webster.
In a late speech in Fanael Hall, Bos
ton, towads the conclusion of his re
mark- Jefferson Davis used the follow
ing words:
It has been not only, my friends, in
this increasing and mutual d p' ndcnce
of in tore.-ts that we have formed new
bonds to bind ns together. These bonds
are both material and mental. Every
improvement in the navigation ot rivers,
every construction of railroads, has of
fered a new reason for our being to
gether. Every new achicvment, wheth
er in art or science, in war or manufac
tures, has constituted to us a new am
glorious memory, and that has affordet
a new bond, a new sentiment, bolding
ns together. Why, then, 1 will ask
again, why do we see these lengthening
-shadows which fall in the course of our
political history ( Is it because the
sun is declining in the Irorizon I Arc
they indeed the shadows of the evening,
or arc they, rather as I hope and be
lieve, but the mists which arc exhaled by
the sun when it rises, and which are to
be dispersed in its meridian glory !
Arc they but the little evarescent
clouds which flit between the people and
the great purposes which the Constitu
tion was ordained to establish ? 1 hope
fully look for that reaction which shall
establish the fact that our sun is yet in
the ascendant, that that pall which has
so long covered our political prospect is
to he drawn aside, that we are again to
be divided in opinion upon measures of
expediency, in discussions as to the
rights of the States and the powers of
the Federal Government —such discus
sion as is commemorated by this great
picture between your own glomus
statesman, Webster, in the Senate of
the United States, and oar boast and
pride, the great and incorruptible Cal
houn. These men stood in opposition
in political sentiment, yet they warred
not against each other; they stood in
an affectionate relation to each other,
and never did I see Mr. Webster so
agitated, and never did I hear his voice
so falter, as when he delivered his eulo
gy upon John C. Calhoun. But allu
sion was made to my own connection
with your great favorite and departed
statesman. Upon that 1 will only say.
on this occasion, that very early in the
commencement of my Congressional
life, Mr. \\ ebstcr was arraigned for an
offence v Inch afflicted him most deeply.
He was no accountant, as you all know ;
and ho was arraigned on a charge of
having misappropriated what is known
as the “secret service fund.” I was
one of the committee appointed to in
vestigate that charge. I endeavored to
examine the evidence with a view to as
certain the truth. It is true that I re
membered bo was an eminent American
statesman; it is true that as an Amer
ican I hoped ho would come out with
out a stain upon his name ; but I enter
ed into the investigation to ascertain
the truth and to do justice. The re
sult was he was acquitted of every
charge brought against him, and it was
alike my pride and my duty to vindi
cate him in every form that lay within
my power. [Loud applause.J No man
who knows Daniel Webster would ever
expect him to ask less. No man who
knew him ever could have believed that
he would have asked whether the charge
was made against a Massachusetts man
or a Missi . ipian. No. It belonged to
a lower, later, and I trust a shorter
lived race of statesmen to measure all
facts by questions of latitude and lon
gitude. [Loud cheers.]
